yes,sir Father
You took that well, and I commend you, Sir. You have some fine country in South Carolina, Sir.
Hopeak: I love the idea of barge living. I think you are right about the deep bays and rugged coastline being ideal for concealment. Not being familiar with the area, is there a danger of the isolated bays you're talking about freezing over, and would you have to reposition. I don't know if installing a bubbler system would be practical in that environment to keep ice off the hull.
Years ago I tried talking my wife into buying and converting an old 110' military sub chaser into a dive operation and live/work at sea. I even flew her to Vancouver to see one that was for sale and hoping that once she seen it and heard my point of veiw it would soften her up a bit.
The words "NO" and "THATS THE END OF THE CONVERSATION" ended my first dream. No regrets though........... <as I'm thinking about diving off the coast of Roatan>)
I would have did the old chaser a favor, the thing was a 53 year old piece of rusty crap destined for the scrap heap. They wanted $450000.00 and would have cost me another $1000000.00 to restore and convert. The two diesel nengines were the only component that looked somewhat cared for.
I was referring to Submarine Chaser. That's just......just......well.....wrong.
Barge living sounds like a good idea, never thought of it. As for defending a bunker, compound, or whatever... If they really wanna get ya, their gonna get to ya, just depends on many you wanna take out with you first. Always go down fighting.
